---World Bosses---
Similar to MMOs and games like it. WoW,FFXI,FFXIV,SWTOR,GW2
In the "Open" world there could be huge bosses like Phogoth or new ones that roam around in random areas on long re-spawn timers. They would NOT be able to be solo'd, a few fireteams would be needed to take them down.
Think glorified "kill target" public event that doesn't de-spawn until it's killed.
However, the rewards are what would keep it fresh. Give it a token system set up to get specific gear only obtained by beating them and the bosses themselves could also drop vanity gear.
I know this is not original and new, but I think it can add some more lively stuff happening in the open world. Adding a new Endgame element.
Give us bigger Co-Op experiences: open world bosses for 6-16 players
Thoughts?
Edit:
why not add some news scrolling in the tower when they pop to entice players to look for them:
"Phogoth's bastard brothers Twinkie and Caboose (halo reference) broke off their chain, Hunt them down on the moon and secure the area for the vanguard."
This fight could be a Romeo and Juliet fight( two targets that must be killed within the same timeframe or they keep respawning)
World bosses can have different mechanisms and abilities that require supers to help win. Example: the boss instant wipes all players in an area if not inside ward of dawn when the _______ ability goes off. ( there would be an onscreen tell and sound before it happens)
Edit:
Maybe we can get titles under our name for beating certain ones as well as raid bosses and other feats.

WINNER! Please!!

Yes yes yes yes
-
Most MMO's have this... are we still saying Destiny isn't an MMO? I waiting for a healing class.... And the ability to see your fireteams health bars.

Edited by RdDragonEmperor: 4/16/2015 11:40:04 PMI would looooove to see twenty or more guardians fighting a monster boss or army. Mighty warlocks and titans standing proud as hunters fall left and right.

To bad Deej is a -blaming- ghost, I'd like him to see this idea.
-
Ohh squee! Ultra-bump just because Anarchy Online and all the others. Destiny *needs* this!
-
Sorry: transmogrification, weapon shader and private crucible matches are what the community really wants! ;)
-
I love it, but they would need to overhaul the raids I think since they would probably be significantly easier than what you've described, just longer, so couldn't justify best rewards
-
Didn't final fantasy 12 do that?
-
Sounds like S ranks from ffxiv
-
Kinda like how FF:XIV works Many people will gather around the boss I think the only real boss is the devil walker public event
-
YES!!!!!!!!!!! In the beginning i thought it was going to be like that! We need more hidden epic fights and loot! Like FF7 knights of the round table shit! Hell yeah!!!!!!!!! Islands, caves, endless tunnels, bosses almost impossible to beat , with loot like ya never seen before like the knights hitting 13x 9999 ( if i remen right )! Hell yeah!!! Yeah!!! Bump!!!
-
Holy crap yes. I loved that in WoW.
-
Sounds pretty cool! I think they'd have to be careful how it's implemented on Earth and the Moon, even parts of Venus. We obviously don't want our community to dwindle and need new ideas like this, but we also want it to grow. If a level 8 noob is doing missions but keeps running into these, it might discourage him and never come back. I think it's a cool idea, but they'd just have to be careful with it.

This would be a grand addition to the Patrol maps. It would give content that would make those areas way more enjoyable.
-
Oh my god this would be awesome, only problem is a game already has this...cough cough WOW

This idea is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Great thinking on this one! Love the idea of a message board in the Tower! Maybe some like billboard or something that displays a "WANTED" poster or something like that to attract players to hunt them down during that time frame. Anyways, great thinking on this one well done mate.. Cheers!
-
This is needed
-
Hell Yes!! That is exactly what Destiny needs... something to bring back that wow factor! I like the idea of 'Ambush' while on patrol suddenly you/your team is ambushed by a strong enemy force (lv20+) Cosmodrome: Hive Moon: Fallen Venus: Vex Mars: Cabal Survive & Repel the ambush for Rep, Marks, Glimmer, Whatever Also a new collectable in game the had 1000 parts to find spread across the galaxy that lead to an ancient exotic weapon, from a forgotten war, now in hands of Guardians reworked for use in the war against the Darkness

Yes I wanna fight an ahamkara on venus
